New Barnett Wildcat C5 package

TheNext g1 camo is
outstanding

The Wildcat C5 is nice to
handle thanks to reduced dimensions

Introduction

We have tested several
Barnett crossbows, offering top of the line
features , this time we decided to take a look
at an entry level crossbow: the Barnett Wildcat
C5. The Wildcat c5 is the entry ticket into the
Barnett compound crossbows family, it is small
and offers a moderate poundage (150 pounds) with
a top arrow speed of 320 FPS. Let’s take a
deeper look.

Packaging

The
Wildcat C5 is offered in two variants : Camo and
plain black, it is also offered in two different
options, a package that offers quiver, arrows
and your choice of RedDot or Multi reticle scope
and a bare bow with Quiver and arrows. We tested
the version for the Italian market, distributed
by Adinolfi (http://www.adinolfi.com/)
. The Italian version is a bare bow
configuration without any quiver or arrows. This
is precise choice by the distributor leaves to
the customer the option to choose whatever
accessory suits best its needs.
